All of the guests clapping as the scenario is beaten makes me think they'll finally get to go home to their families and take a well needed bathroom break... But Lord Marcel is never so kind as that.
Listen, they were immortal beings that performed some sort of intricately choreographed dance ritual for over 1500 years, we couldn't have let them escape, the SCP foundation would have our heads!
This feels like something from Dante's version of hell. You're a guest and for centuries, maybe over a millennium, you find yourself endlessly wandering the path with your fellow prisoners, surrounded by broken rides and snack stalls that you are long since sick of. The Entertainers still wander the park, trying fruitlessly to amuse you even after centuries of the same costumes and the same dances. The Handymen ignore you pleas for help and continue to maintain the plants and clean the paths, as if you're not even there. The Security Guards wander almost silently, ignoring questions, only barking rebukes at 'vandals', the same rebukes repeated over and over. You haven't seen the Mechanics in centuries, some say they got out somehow, but you know there is no way out, the sign is undeniable. Sometimes the urge will strike you try and do something else, to try and climb over the sign, to duck under it, to grab a Jetski and make for the opposite bank, to try and climb the fence out, but you never will, instead you will do what you have done for so very long... you keep walking. Only after countless circuits are you finally presented the only escape you will ever be offered; as the sound of cheering comes from the sky, the ground simply vanishes beneath you, the water almost seeming to rise up to meet you all. After so very long, it is over and you can only pray that whatever comes next is kinder than whatever god did this to you.
"Do you hear that? That's the sound of forgiveness."" "That's the sound of people drowning, Marcel." "That's what forgiveness sounds like: screaming and then silence."
I remember how I was browsing an NSFW site and being confused why "watersports" was an auto-blacklisted tag. "What's so wrong about water sports? Is it actually about drowning or something? I mean, gore is blacklisted too, so I could see the same being applied to drowning." Boy was I wrong.
"You start with a loan of 3,000 euros which you can easily pay back by selling a few scenery items" - cut to Marcel demolishing half an apartment complex and a whole hotel for a few bucks.
"The rides that are still running will eventually break down one, last, time. Never to be fixed again..." A rather solemn line, makes me think of all the abandoned amusement parks out there
“Slowly the murmur of 14,000 guests dies down and in the end there is nothing except silence” But thank god the dancing ladies survived, I would’ve cursed this cruel world for taking away three precious lives
I would have loved to see you just remove the no-entry sign at the end and watch them all leave at the same time. Don't get me wrong, drowning them is fun, but this would also be funny to watch imo.
Wow. You rightfully show the dedication of the handymen and dedicate the video to the memory of the engineers, but not even a mention of the hardworking entertainer in the tiger costume that has been sweating his butt off for more than a thousand years smh
Those narration about the mechanics in particular really had me laughing out loud. "it's only a matter of time until we lose mechanic 1" "I regret to inform you that we have lost mechanic 1". Especially because I work as a customer service and uses the template "I regret to inform you" a lot at work What a blessing to have this video up and ready to watch right after a hard day's work.
OpenRCT2 runs natively under linux as well, which means that's one easy way to get around the problem. But you could simply load up the most recent autosave if you are dead set on windows, you wouldn't have missed much I'm sure lol
Is this funny, because people still haven't figured out how to get to the Windows Update settings to disable automatic reboots? It's one of the first things I set up on a new system.
@@fonesrphunny7242 Yes, you can disable updates from installing as soon as they’re ready, but the system will still restart when it thinks you’re not active. My computer will even wake itself up from sleep to install updates, as it did the night before which is what prompted the comment.
@@funx24X7 If you deploy a certain Group Policy Object, you can disable the automatic updating entirely. Though on Home version of Windows you have to do it with workarounds, since the GPO editor is included only in the Professional and above.
When he said that "it is time to relieve them from their suffering" i honestly thought he would remove the no entrance sign and let them leave... silly me. Almost at 100k subs though - silver playbutton, here we come!
If you're fine with cheats, it might also work to disable clearance checks and build a path through the exit and the station piece that it connects to.
"I felt a great disturbance, as if thousands of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened."
Just imagine some lord in Medieval Europe opened a theme park at the onset of the 6th century AD, only for his great-great-great-great-great-great-great-greatgrandson to close it 1519 years later. That's how long it took in game to complete this scenario.
Laughed out loud at the "giant dancing ladies" straightaway. Great stuff Marcel. Edit: and it just gets funnier and funnier throughout. Amazing as always.
This is for me by far the best video of you Marcel which is with storyline + challenge completion. You have really advanced yourself in making videos with a combination of entertainment, storyline, humour and still the very basic RCT2 gameplay with the will of always trying to push the limit. One could easily compare this video to your longest ever ride time videos to see how huge you have evolved. A great job done and a great great video Marcel, thank you for making this.
I appreciate how informative your videos are even for people who claim to be experts (such as myself). Interesting points that you made that i didn't know: guests contribute to park value, and guests will spawn no matter what happens, albeit at a very slow pace and thirdly mechanics have a chance to get caught in an exit and will fall and drown over water. It's always a good time watch a marcel vos video :)
It's so disturbing to think that all these people have wandered in the park for 1500 years, exhausted, starving, and losing their minds, only to suddenly stare into the sky and all start applauding God Marcel at the exact same insant also RIP to the 2 brave mechanics who continued working even though they knew that one day they would drown horrifically
Friend, you will not be disappointed 🙂 Just allow yourself to start small. If you can, start with the RCT1 scenarios - Marcel even has a video on how RCT1 has a way better difficulty curve than RCT2
This gives me the idea of doing something akin to the "A button challenge" for Mario 64 - Either a "minimum amount of actions" challenge or a "minimum amount of rides built" challenge could make for some creative strategies.
Holy shit what is Kaze doing here? Maybe it would be funny to have a RCT2 guest in that bowser theme park level you’re making. Speak to him and he’ll just complain about wanting to go home. All he ever does is aimlessly wander the level.
11:28 "Shhhhhh... do you hear that? That's the sounds of forgiveness." "That's the sound of people drowning, Carl." "THAT is what forgiveness sounds like. Screaming and then silence."
I continue to marvel at your commitment to play this game by NOT playing the game....and STILL be more entertaining than someone actually playing the game! Lord indeed, a Lord among mere guests.
Marcel is a lovable savage. His toying with guests knows no bounds. :D I like how the video is about one thing, but a tangent starts about the Handyman glitch, was a excellent touch of neat info. 👍
Fucking hell dude. The whole video I was hoping you'd delete the no entrance sign and let them leave the grand experiment, but I forgot only sociopaths play this game.
What I excepted: a Marcel video about funny RCT stuff What I got: Unyielding existential horror of characters in a theme park hell they cannot escape for over a thousand years when they finally succumb to the oblivion of death.
"I think it is time to releif the guests from suffering." Ok, So you're going to remove the no entry sign and let the guests home. "I'm gonna DROWN the guest until the're all dead!" ... OK
I love that your videos address the title so fast and just push all that crap aside like "cool cool, no one cares, check out this other whacky stuff that happens though"
Marcel has created some of the most horrifying scenarios for guests to be in. So many years of suffering... The guests looked like zombies, such a cool video
This just has an eerie resemblance to a "fate of the universe" kind of video with mechanic 1 being the last star of the universe lol Amazing clip as always btw
Marcel..... I cant help but think you have descended from simple deviance to utter realms of schadenfreude. Somehow if this existed i can only begin to imagine the hell as i am guest 1.... doomed to spend millennia walking one of two paths, once i have chosen which it becomes eternal, only to appease the god in the sky as thousands of years later... and millions and upon millions of paces later the world collapses into cybernetic oblivion and my anguish is extinguished finally., as nothingness claims me and i can finally rest in eternal oblivion.... Man to think about that... haha.... that kinds puts my existential crisis thoughts at bay while i was watching this...
"The official value of a human life in this universe is 7 dollars" Considering the fact they all have infinite money in their bank account makes this even more funny. lol
One of my mechanics drowned last week and I was so confused! Happy to have seen the answer for it here, though I do wish it was something OpenRCT2 could patch.
I had four mechanics die on that scenario during a normal play through and had no idea why, so thank you for enlightening me. I thought it had something to do with the way the ride broke down maybe. Kind of like when your station brakes fail.
I was kinda expecting a diagram time/guests produced by using the JavaScript plugin API. But I was really impressed by the video, its humor, and the detailed observations on drowning mechanics and glitching guest walking patterns.
Oh gosh how much I love those silly challenges, and even more the little pieces of knowledge hidden within them. The thing with the drawing mechanicist is sooo cool to know! ♥️
This challenge really gets me wanting a mod that gives maximally tired guests make Quake 2 prisoner noises "eeeuuuuuuuuu" "Make it stop!" "HEHUHAHEHU!"
Actually I just thought of one thing, imagine if back in 00s someone played this scenario normally and suddenly saw the message that a mechanic has drowned, but had no save files or anything to investigate on as to what the hell happened. It would've been a terrifying experience.
Knowing that sawyer made 7000 guests the 'limit' 3 DECADES AGO is kinda insane to me. It's absolutely crazy that this game even existed when it did. The guy was an absolute genius
Nah mane, it's been 24 years from release of RCT1. Bit less from RCT2. Not quite 3 decades even by the most generous counting. Nonetheless what he did with assembly code truly was monstrous amount of game development
you know, when he said that he was gonna release them from their suffering, I thought, for a moment, that he was gonna get rid of the sign and watch everyone stream to the exit. I was wrong, but not disappointed.
Ahhhhh I know drowning them is kinda your thing but when you said release them part of me thought you were just gonna delete the no entry sign so we could watch them all stampede the exit. Still a neat video. I never knew that about mechanics! Dangerous work, indeed!
this is a real cosmic horror existential dread kind of video mechanics working tirelessly for thousands of years just to one day vanish without discretion all the rides being doomed to eventually decay into uselessness more and more guests being assimilated into the twin black holes that is the guest groups and finally after thousands and thousands of years of cacophony all sound ceasing into the dead silence of space eerie
Here I thought Marcel was just going to delete the No Entry sign, and watch the people scurry away like rats. However, this was finished in true Marcel style.
Macel's dedication to making funfare into nightmare is amusing. poor guests #1-7000+ wow i have never noticed that mechanic getting stuck before, interesting insight
It's not the no entry sign that prevent guests from leaving, it's because Marcel in his newest experiment decides to sew them into 2 giant human centipedes…
Video idea/suggestion: fail a scenario by going in debt too much. Pick a map where entry is free. Max out loan, spend all the money, get rid of all the incomes sources. Remove anything of valve (selling objects). Then once your negitive, you have no way to recover from it :)
That's not really enough for a video. All there is to it is deleting a bunch of path/scenery, taking out a loan, and wasting the money on something like staff or terrain.
That 'torturing' is nothing compared to what I did in RCT3. My favorite was a giant water slide, with a 10 meter free fall at the end, into a tiny pool the shape of a ... I always thought it's funny you can open rides like this, until the game eventually figures out "hey, that's actually too dangerous". The solution was to extend the ... pool. Actually, my favorite activity was finding the worst ride in any park, making it even worse and calling it "your mum". Reading through the guest comments becomes hilarious.
I was kind of hoping the end would involve deleting the no entry sign and watching all of the guests B-line for the exit. However, I also like your strategy.
"Ah, he'll remove the 'Do Not Enter' sign and we'll get to watch the guests slowly file out until the park is empty, as it was in the start." What a fool I was...
All of the guests clapping as the scenario is beaten makes me think they'll finally get to go home to their families and take a well needed bathroom break... But Lord Marcel is never so kind as that.
Listen, they were immortal beings that performed some sort of intricately choreographed dance ritual for over 1500 years, we couldn't have let them escape, the SCP foundation would have our heads!
It's been 1500 years - their families might have moved on
1500 years. Imagine what they come home to. I hope it's a sad, forlorn ruin so their pain spikes one more time before the years catch up to them.
Nice one Kanaya 👍
I think this is post-apocalypse by the end.
This feels like something from Dante's version of hell.

Haha I was thinking the same thing, its like something Franz Kafka would write
Or Black Mirror ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Dont forget the giant Bikini ladies
Reading this felt good. Peaceful.
Its like one of the few SCPs that doesnt suck... its also like a lot of SCPs that sucks.. it just generally sounds like an SCPs story
"Do you hear that? That's the sound of forgiveness.""
"That's the sound of people drowning, Marcel."
"That's what forgiveness sounds like: screaming and then silence."
CAAAAAAAAAAAARL!!!!!
caaaaaaaaaarrrrrl
Edit: dang it Marcel beat me to the punch by 1 minute...
"Carl, _that kills people!"_ that Carl?
Legit thought of this quote at the end of the video but in German for some reason. Lol
*You must complete your work, Marcel.*
“Enjoy your watersports, Darrel” made me lose it 😂
The fact that it was a _golden_ jet ski, too...
@@hiimemily LMAO I didn't even think of that
Next video he'll just straight up waterboard guest
If he stayed on...he might have survived the massacre.
I remember how I was browsing an NSFW site and being confused why "watersports" was an auto-blacklisted tag. "What's so wrong about water sports? Is it actually about drowning or something? I mean, gore is blacklisted too, so I could see the same being applied to drowning."
Boy was I wrong.
The storytelling in this one is superb. I was at the edge of my seat to hear the tale of Mechanic 1.
Grand ballads must be written for him and his passion for ride maintenance
Mechanic 1 has drowned!
Moment of silence please for Mechanic 2...
"He fixed our rides, but who is left to fix our hearts?"

One Mechanic death is a tragedy. 14 thousand guest deaths is a statistic. - Marcel Vos
"You start with a loan of 3,000 euros which you can easily pay back by selling a few scenery items"

"A hotel and half a building ? Best I can do is 1000€"
Lmao
This demolition from Demolition Company 1 is really good value
Don’t you have a buddy you can call and value the hotel at least? It’s out back on my truck.
As soon as he said
"The official value of a human life is $7" (1:20)
I knew we were in for a treat
Better than Mr. Krabs selling SpongeBob's soul for a couple cents 😂
"The rides that are still running will eventually break down one, last, time. Never to be fixed again..." A rather solemn line, makes me think of all the abandoned amusement parks out there

But thank god the dancing ladies survived, I would’ve cursed this cruel world for taking away three precious lives
“Nothing of value was lost”
@@KatzOhki wel actually, they were the park value, so in a way something of park value was lost in the end.
@@TyroRNG oh man you're right!
The guests all cheering and clapping while intensly staring at the viewer after all theyve been through is like a scene from a weird horror movie
I would have loved to see you just remove the no-entry sign at the end and watch them all leave at the same time. Don't get me wrong, drowning them is fun, but this would also be funny to watch imo.
Some people just want to get back to the byzantine empire, y'know?
same
what if we put all those guest on a single path square?
yeah i wanted to see them flood out en masse
I half expected him to remove the no entry sign but also turn the ground to water before any of the guests could reach it
Wow. You rightfully show the dedication of the handymen and dedicate the video to the memory of the engineers, but not even a mention of the hardworking entertainer in the tiger costume that has been sweating his butt off for more than a thousand years smh
For basically no reason at all, since it's not physically possible for the guests to leave 😅
He also really humanized the mechanics
The person inside has basically merged with it at that point lets be honest
This is my favorite Marcel video of all time. Your fans and followers thank you for the 458.5 hours you put into this. RIP Mechanic 1
I actually laughed out loud when you were debating if you could finish it before the second mechanic died. Too funny man your delivery is perfect.
Those narration about the mechanics in particular really had me laughing out loud. "it's only a matter of time until we lose mechanic 1" "I regret to inform you that we have lost mechanic 1". Especially because I work as a customer service and uses the template "I regret to inform you" a lot at work
What a blessing to have this video up and ready to watch right after a hard day's work.
8:00 Even in a dystopian nightmare, there's a new guy who's having fun. There's an important life lesson here.
The real challenge in this run is preventing Windows from automatically installing updates and restarting the PC
OpenRCT2 runs natively under linux as well, which means that's one easy way to get around the problem. But you could simply load up the most recent autosave if you are dead set on windows, you wouldn't have missed much I'm sure lol
You can delay updates by seven days, and these can stack.
Is this funny, because people still haven't figured out how to get to the Windows Update settings to disable automatic reboots?

@@fonesrphunny7242 Yes, you can disable updates from installing as soon as they’re ready, but the system will still restart when it thinks you’re not active. My computer will even wake itself up from sleep to install updates, as it did the night before which is what prompted the comment.

So, that explains where all my mechanics went. I thought they unionized and left.
"I think now it's time to release the guests from thier suffering..."
What I expected: "...By letting them leave."
Marcel: "...By killing them all."
When he said that "it is time to relieve them from their suffering" i honestly thought he would remove the no entrance sign and let them leave... silly me.
Almost at 100k subs though - silver playbutton, here we come!
Sooo close! So excited, as a fellow Dutchie I feel strangely proud :D
Note to self: always elevate the station when over water and put a path under the exit.
Mechanics aren't that hard to replace. I don't know if they quite reach those 7€, though.
@@Pystro The reason is so I don’t have to keep track of them
If you're fine with cheats, it might also work to disable clearance checks and build a path through the exit and the station piece that it connects to.
You can't elevate water rides?
"I felt a great disturbance, as if thousands of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened."
"The average human life is only worth €7"
Ah, so RCT takes place in the Cruelty Squad universe, makes sense
Just imagine some lord in Medieval Europe opened a theme park at the onset of the 6th century AD, only for his great-great-great-great-great-great-great-greatgrandson to close it 1519 years later. That's how long it took in game to complete this scenario.
Laughed out loud at the "giant dancing ladies" straightaway. Great stuff Marcel.
Edit: and it just gets funnier and funnier throughout. Amazing as always.
Can we get an F in the chat for the mechanics who drowned because of the glitch
FF
moment of silence for 2 mechanics. Laugh our asses off for nearly 15k guests drowning.
This is definitely one of my favorite parks in RCT2 just because it feels like it could be a real place
Wow, I didn't expect to come here and shed a tear, but Marcel did it at around 9:01.
This is for me by far the best video of you Marcel which is with storyline + challenge completion. You have really advanced yourself in making videos with a combination of entertainment, storyline, humour and still the very basic RCT2 gameplay with the will of always trying to push the limit.

Creditor: How much debt did you rack up?
Marcel Vos: Yes.
"The park is valued at €115,000."
"And what is your total company value?"
"ThE pArK iS VaLuEd aT €115,000."
Let’s get this man to the well-deserved 100k subscriber milestone!
It's so disturbing to think that all these people have wandered in the park for 1500 years, exhausted, starving, and losing their minds, only to suddenly stare into the sky and all start applauding God Marcel at the exact same insant
also RIP to the 2 brave mechanics who continued working even though they knew that one day they would drown horrifically
So much dedication! Great video Marcel!
thanks god that we are using the limited energy in europe for the right things
UNLMITED POWERRRRRRR
Marcel, I've never played RollerCoaster Tycoon at all but, from watching all of your videos I decided to play it :D

"I think it is time to releif the guests from suffering."
Ok, So you're going to remove the no entry sign and let the guests home.

The two separate groups of guests walking along seemingly random paths gave me SCP vibes.
6:28 "He didn't just quit and go home... instead he killed himself"
I love that your videos address the title so fast and just push all that crap aside like "cool cool, no one cares, check out this other whacky stuff that happens though"
Marcel has created some of the most horrifying scenarios for guests to be in. So many years of suffering...
The guests looked like zombies, such a cool video
Would have love to see them all leave the park in a really compact line.
Lol I was waiting in anticipation to see all the guests flood out at the end when you remove the sign 😂😂😂 this was slightly different than I expected
This just has an eerie resemblance to a "fate of the universe" kind of video with mechanic 1 being the last star of the universe lol
Amazing clip as always btw
I love how nakedly capitalist the RCT series was.
would have liked to see how fast they rush to the exit if you remove the nopass sign :D but drowning as usual is fine too 👍
They immediately go towards the park exit, but I wouldn't exactly call it "rushing" as they have zero energy left and walk superslow.
I like how the tiger-entertainer ist waving his hand, right before the guests are drowning :D
In memory of Mechanic 1 and Mechanic 2
Patience is a virtue
Jesus, Marcel. I think this might just be the grimmest video you've made yet!
I love it. 👍
Marcel..... I cant help but think you have descended from simple deviance to utter realms of schadenfreude. Somehow if this existed i can only begin to imagine the hell as i am guest 1.... doomed to spend millennia walking one of two paths, once i have chosen which it becomes eternal, only to appease the god in the sky as thousands of years later... and millions and upon millions of paces later the world collapses into cybernetic oblivion and my anguish is extinguished finally., as nothingness claims me and i can finally rest in eternal oblivion....

Aah yes, "happiest place on earth" that you can never leave. That's super interesting about the mechanic deaths.
you know, when he said that he was gonna release them from their suffering, I thought, for a moment, that he was gonna get rid of the sign and watch everyone stream to the exit. I was wrong, but not disappointed.
I was so looking forward for you to remove the no entry sign and watch the happy guests leave. I screamed at the ending. 😂😂
Ahhhhh I know drowning them is kinda your thing but when you said release them part of me thought you were just gonna delete the no entry sign so we could watch them all stampede the exit.
Still a neat video. I never knew that about mechanics! Dangerous work, indeed!
Marcel's willingness to just thanos snap an entire park... it's beautiful.
this is a real cosmic horror existential dread kind of video
mechanics working tirelessly for thousands of years just to one day vanish without discretion
all the rides being doomed to eventually decay into uselessness
more and more guests being assimilated into the twin black holes that is the guest groups
and finally after thousands and thousands of years of cacophony all sound ceasing into the dead silence of space
eerie
"The mechanic droned without me having anything to do with it"
Yeah, i don´t believe you.
RIP Mechanic 1. Gone but not forgotten.
A single handyman drowning is a tragedy; 14,000 guests drowning is a statistic.
I was wondering how my mechanic drowned seemingly randomly once. Good to know. And, as always, interesting challenge and great analysis.
Even the guest have forgiven you. First screaming and than silence, that is the sound of forgiveness.
Just think of how many inbreed people must be in park now after being trapped for 1,500+ years
Here I thought Marcel was just going to delete the No Entry sign, and watch the people scurry away like rats. However, this was finished in true Marcel style.
Marcel: tortures guests for literal thousands of years
background music: ^_^ :D ^~^ :)
Macel's dedication to making funfare into nightmare is amusing.
poor guests #1-7000+
wow i have never noticed that mechanic getting stuck before, interesting insight
It's not the no entry sign that prevent guests from leaving, it's because Marcel in his newest experiment decides to sew them into 2 giant human centipedes…
This has gotta be one of your best videos. Mechanic 1 and 2 will not be forgotten. Keep it up Marcel love your content!
Video idea/suggestion: fail a scenario by going in debt too much. Pick a map where entry is free. Max out loan, spend all the money, get rid of all the incomes sources. Remove anything of valve (selling objects). Then once your negitive, you have no way to recover from it :)
That's not really enough for a video. All there is to it is deleting a bunch of path/scenery, taking out a loan, and wasting the money on something like staff or terrain.
That 'torturing' is nothing compared to what I did in RCT3.
My favorite was a giant water slide, with a 10 meter free fall at the end, into a tiny pool the shape of a ... I always thought it's funny you can open rides like this, until the game eventually figures out "hey, that's actually too dangerous". The solution was to extend the ... pool.
Actually, my favorite activity was finding the worst ride in any park, making it even worse and calling it "your mum". Reading through the guest comments becomes hilarious.
I was kind of hoping the end would involve deleting the no entry sign and watching all of the guests B-line for the exit.
However, I also like your strategy.
This is a very gaming moment
Ok but for real this is really cool
"Ah, he'll remove the 'Do Not Enter' sign and we'll get to watch the guests slowly file out until the park is empty, as it was in the start."
What a fool I was...
Those entertainers. Over 1500 years walking around in a fursuit. That... sounds... AWESOME!!
I was partly hoping you’d change the sign to allow entry at the end and we watch everyone walk out.
Damn I was really hoping for the alternative ending where you delete the No Entry sign and everyone streams out to freedom
Marcel wins by doing absolutely nothing
